To evaluate choroidal thickness using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in comparison to healthy controls.
This observational, comparative study consisted of 35 patients with OSAS and 32 age- and sex-matched controls. The controls did not have systemic or ocular diseases. All study participants underwent complete ophthalmic examination as well as choroidal thickness measurement using a high-speed, high-resolution SD-OCT device.
The mean horizontal and vertical choroidal thicknesses, respectively, were 237.84 ± 69.9 μm and 234.97 ± 62.0 μm (P = .654) in patients with OSAS and 244.09 ± 41.2 μm and 241.88 ± 40.9 μm (P = .590) in the healthy controls. The mean choroidal thicknesses were thinner in patients with OSAS, but the difference was not significant (P > .05 for all values).
No differences in choroidal thickness were found between patients with OSAS and healthy controls.
使用光谱域光学相干断层扫描(SD - OCT)评估阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合征(OSAS)患者的脉络膜厚度,并与健康对照者进行比较。
这项观察性比较研究包括35例OSAS患者和32例年龄及性别匹配的对照者。对照者无全身性或眼部疾病。所有研究参与者均接受了全面的眼科检查,并使用高速、高分辨率的SD - OCT设备测量脉络膜厚度。
OSAS患者的平均水平和垂直脉络膜厚度分别为237.84±69.9μm和234.97±62.0μm(P = 0.654),健康对照者的分别为244.09±41.2μm和241.88±40.9μm(P = 0.590)。OSAS患者的平均脉络膜厚度较薄,但差异不显著(所有值P>0.05)。
OSAS患者与健康对照者之间的脉络膜厚度无差异。
